     President Frank L. McVey
     University of Kentucky

     Dear President McVey:

          There is submitted herewith plans for a small lab-
     oratory to be used for conducting the study of recurrent
     ophthalmia.   It is proposed that this should be oon-
     structed as an addition to the present veterinary build-
     ing and is estimated that the construction cost will be
     around $14,000.   Inasmuch as this laboratory is to be
     used specifically for a Bankhead-Jones research project,
     a part of the funds available f rom that fund may be used
     for its construction.   I recommend that upon authoriza-
     tion by the Board of Trustees for the construction of
     this laboratory it shall be financed as follows:

        From funds of Federal origin for the
        construction of a laboratory for the
        study of recurrent ophthalmia .......... $10,000

        From funds set aside out of the bond
        fund which was issued by the Experi-
        ment Station, and which sum may be
        used for construction   .    ........... 5,000
                                               $15,000

                          Yours truly,

                                  (Signed) Thomas Cooper
                                           Dean of College of
                                              Agriculture
                                           Director of Experiment
                                              Station


     On motion duly seconded and carried, the plans submitted by
Dean Cooper were approved and accepted, at the cost suggested in
Dean Cooper's letter.   For payment of the cost of construction,
the use of $10,000.00 from the Bankhead-Jones Federal Fund (Experi-
ment Station allotment) and 85,000.00 from the Bond and Interest
Redemption Fund, Experiment Station annex was approved and ordered.

     The Business Agent was directed and authorized to make payment
of construction costs from said funds.

     Dean Cooper was further authorized and directed to ask for
bids for the construction, the bids to be oDened in President Mc-
Vey's office, and the lowest and best bid accepted.    The chairman
of the Executive Committee was authorized to sign contract when

   O. Interurban Right of Way on Nicholasville Pike.

   'resident McVey submitted following letter from Dean Cooper:

                                   October 12, 1937

   President Frank L. McVey
   University of Kentucky

   Dear President McVey:

         The Kentucky Agricultural Experiment Station deeded
   for the interurban line the necessary right-of-way fronting
   its property on the Nicholasville Pike.   This line has
   been abandoned.   Under the terms of the deed the property
   reverts to the Experiment Station.   I presume it would be
   appropriate to offer this right-of-way to the county for
   road purposes.   If you approve, I wish to recommend that
   an offer be made to convey to the county the right-of-way
   which has reverted to the Experiment Station.

                                   Very truly yours,

                                       (Signed) Thomas Cooper
                                                 Dean and Director


     The suggestions made by Dean Cooper were approved, and authori-
ty was given to have the right of way transferred to Fayette County
to be used for road purposes only.   R. C. Stoll, Chairman of the
Executive Committee, and D. H. Peak, its Secretary, were authorized
to execute the deed to Fayette County after it has been approved
by the Attorney General.
